Abstract
This report reviews the results and main conclusions of the NOWRDC project "Wind Farm Control and Layout Optimization for U.S. Offshore Wind Farms." A key finding is that wake steering should be considered a valuable tool for increasing the energy production of wind farms, especially in the event the farms are designed to maximize the energy production of a given boundary area.
